I think you overestimate the quality of some Type Rating courses. One I did recently hadn't been updated in 15 years and was missing whole chunks because it wasn't included in the original "day 1" training notes the company have received at the factory.
In the case of the EC120, the EMER SW was an option and also was subject to SB after it was found to do the opposite of what is was supposed to do so unless the PowerPoint was updated, it was probably not briefed. If your TRI (or likely FI in this case) has never flown an EC120 with that particular mod, it's not surprising they might not know, although given its in the FLM its not much of an excuse.
